I'd like to see you make one with narrower string spacing, like my Fenders. I'm not exactly sure what that is but it's much better for me. I've tried one with 3/8" and did not like it. I would imagine other pedal steel players would agree. I'll definately be interested if you'll offer that option. Thanks, Tommy......

[Ron Mielzynski]

A narrower string spacing would not be a problem. It would just take a small adjustment on the machining of the bridge. If you could, take a couple measurements and message or send me an email.

[Tommy Auldridge]

After checking the spacing on My Fender Dual 8 Pro.
3/8" Is what I would want. I must have been confused when I thought differently. Sorry If I caused any problem. Thanks, Tommy..... P.S. I will be getting one of these real soon.

Those look nice and I bet they sound great.
